These are 3 of my favourite films, just wish could find the photos taken during the video, was it for a magazines are for the video cover ?
IDK good question. I don't know if the site posted or sold stills (he sure took a lot of them).
 
I've actually grown bored of Yummy and Yummyzine, tbh, but I will always credit them with giving us the first real peek at Pietro Boselli's penis! (These are pulled from the shots they publicly shared on social media and their site, you'll have buy the issue to see the rest, sorry!)

(Why bored? They charge a LOT of money every issue, but after a promising start, they now overuse one concept — golden hued outdoor shots, usually rocky landscapes, of expressionless, highly defined white guys — and the photographer/s who favors that style, so much that a good 50% of their shoots immediately blend together in my mind, with no uniqueness or individuality, which isn't worth that much money every few months. When you've seen it once, you've seen it all.)

I find this magazine irritating as you don't know who you are getting

OMG, hard agree! Such a promising start, too, with Btitish actor Julian Morris (pics below!), in a really great B&W shoot for their inaugural issue. Now, like you said, 50% are Sasha Olsen shooting in the outdoors, usually with rock or stone backgrounds, and "golden" light. The oher 50% are a mixed bag of quality but very little diversity in concepts, locations, or models, and almost NO model personality comes through (that was what made the best of Playgirl and G Magazine shoots so great, you wanted to date or at least fuck the guys after perusing the shoots and had your favorites; in Yummy they are all bland and interchangeable), it's all about the photographer and their setting. Given the high prices they charge, I couldn't justify it anymore.

But here is that brilliant shoot of British actor Julian Morris ("Man in the Orange Shirt," etc.) to remember their better days by...

Pretty sure this is why Yummy's access to celebrities (actors, athletes, and name models) dried up pretty quickly after such a good start with folks like Julian Morris and Pietro Boselli. Apart from a couple of emergenrpt, hot mid-tier male models, they've really punched way below their weight.

It's the lack of authenticity and originality for sure, plus the fact they apparently don't pay photographers or models (I was told this directly by one of their main photographers, explaining why he can't pay models a sitting fee; he could have been lying, though, as I wondered why he did so much free work for them, but either way models aren't getting paid) and demand total control and exclusivity, despite charging an arm and a leg for every issue, and not much less for the 'zines. That means they rely on that photographer and a few others, and unpaid models willing to sign away exclusive rights, including limits on how they can use the photos to promote themselves, that are more typical of paid work. With that, you get what you get...and they do.

Even when Playgirl was running on fumes, they still used their checkbook to snag lower level celebrities and fill every issue witha variety of men.

Playgirl was on fire with celebrity actor/athlete nudes (including full frontals, like the legendary Jim Brown centerfold in the OP) in the 70s and early 80s. In the Reagan years the celebrity shoots got more coy (lots of underwear and implied nudity) and by the heyday of the "Moral Majority" and the religious right in the 90s, most celebrities kept their pants on and many kept their SHIRTS on.

Here are a few celebrity penises from the golden years, tho.

Small correction. It was George Chakiris who starred in West Side Story, not George Maharis. George Maharis starred in Route 66 among other projects. Both are understood to be gay, with more direct proof related to George Maharis. I don't know of any nude George Chakiris photos.

Thank you, that is an important correction, and yes, it was both of them being gay and sharing the name that led to me getting them confused. Thank you!

But hey - is there actually at least 1 picture in Yummy that you can see Boselli's penis clearly? Coz that issue sold out pretty quickly and I took a look at the newsstand (they had an unwrapped mag on the stand) and I couldn't find a single picture that revelead much other than butt shots. Also think it's crazy that - if such "explicit" photo exists - they it hasn't been leaked to this day.

I find this magazine irritating as you don't know who you are getting
Yeah, I don't get that. They announce a model and then when you actually get the mag he's nowhere to be found.

I honestly don't know. I didn't buy that issue (sold out too fast). As with Playgirl, celebrity subjects are allowed to be more "shy," as seen in the Julian Morris non-frontals, too.

I really wish Playgirl would relaunch and with sexual verve like in the 1970s and 1980s.I feel the culture still needs a sort of premium celebrity nudeshoot!
 
In the 60s there was a sibling trapeze act called "The Flying Cavarettas." They were on "The Ed Sullivan Show," "The Hollywood Palace," and in all the magazines. Jimmy, the only brother, was a hearthrob, and a bachelor on "The Dating Game." The siblings were headliners at Circus Circus in Vegas for five years and, after the siblings broke into smaller acts to do their own things, brother Jimmy posed for Playgirl.

And, to this day, trapeze fans, horny ladies, and thirsty gays are grateful to Jimmy Cavaretta for his long...career in the arts.

Steve Bond in the 1980s, before he was on General Hospital.

And the one that blew my mind in the 80s—Flash Gordon himself, Sam J. Jones and his big ol’ cock.

Steve Bond as Jimmy Lee Holt was so incredible. He'd wear the tightest jeans ever. I don't remember a word he said of course. He was also in the 1970s shlock horror movie "Massacre at Central High" when he was 22-23. I believe he died when he was practicing diving at the high school pool at night with the lights off and the murdered had secretly drained the pool. That didn't end well but he looked good in the speedo just prior.

As for General Hospital, Ian Buchanan as Duke Lavery started the last year Steve Bond was on in 1986. I learned later that he's gay. But before that I saw him on the street with a group of friends. I wanted to say hi but I had forgotten his real name an almost called him Duke.
